All about me

HI all, I’m Roisin Wood a (late) thirty something mam of three from Newcastle Upon Tyne and in case you haven’t guessed already…. I love Disney!

I started my Disneyfind Instagram page back in May 2014 when I was off on maternity leave with my middle son, James. I stated the page for a little bit of fun and because he was such a good baby, I had time on my hands, not so much with Joseph….. I thought it would be good to have a place on Instagram to find and share all different Disney products available in the UK and I have been shocked by how many people seem to enjoy my page.

As my page grew, I realised that there are so many adult Disney fans in the world and many have sent me messages to say that they have felt inspired by page and that I have helped them to realise that it s ok to be an adult and to love Disney.

Initially, I didn’t introduce myself to my followers as I was working in a Newcastle High School as a Head of Year and I want quite sure how appropriate that would be. However, as the years have gone on, people seemed interested to know a little more about me and my family so I started to share a little more and I think they enjoy it.

I also believe that life should be full of magic and I hope that through my social media pages and blog that I am able to share these experiences with like minded people. I have also found, surprisingly that I have experienced no negativity or unkind behaviour that I know can sometimes happen on social media.

I have been very lucky over the years to work with a number of brands and I do not take any of this for granted. I had my second little boy in October 2016 and I decided that I would like to pursue Disneyfind as a full time job. Only time will tell if I have made the right decision, however in the words of Walt – “Your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them”.
